Subject: Ada->C++ conversion stats?
Date: 2000/03/21
Date: 2000-03-21T00:00:00+00:00	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <QDDB4.14$2K6.5733@news.pacbell.net> (raw)

Every once in a while we hear of something in Ada (presumably Ada 83)
being rewritten in C++.  When that happens, is there a complete
redesign, or just a transliteration?  If the former, how much effort
is the rewrite as compared to the original (I realize the second
time around is easier) and how does the result compare?  If a
transliteration, how much effort, how many old bugs discovered
and how much debugging time for new bugs and how does the result
compare to the original.  If no comparison is available, is it
because there's no record of the original or because there's no
measurement of the new version, or what?
